Ferguson Impacts The World & Other Countries Give Us America Honest Look At Our Racial Issues

Sure we’ve seen Ferguson headlines all over our news feeds, favorite sites and TV screens, but this story is even bigger than we think. Mike Brown’s impact on our generation has reached the entire world. And it’s interesting to see how the people across the pond cover our racial injustices. “So the U.S. government, when talking about their own country, forgets about democracy, human rights, protection of ‘peaceful protesters’ and people’s right to protest,” Russian news outlet Pravda.ru proclaimed on its Web site Tuesday. In August,official state news agency KCNAsaid that the U.S. had become “a laughing stock of the world” following the problems in Ferguson. “The U.S. had better honestly accept the unanimous accusations of the broad international community and mind its own business,” KCNA said in its August commentary, “instead of interfering in the internal affairs of other countries.” Check out what other countries say about Ferguson and the systemic racism in America here.

Solange took to Instagram to share that she’s going to be delaying the release of her Puma collaboration collection from Friday November 28 to Monday December 1. Many Mike Brown supporters have sparked and urged other to boycott Black Friday–the day after Thanksgiving when many stores have amazing sales and deals. One of the best ways to get anyone’s attention is to mess with their money. If we can boycott one of the biggest economic surges in America, who knows, maybe our voices will be heard. Thanks Solange! Check out a sneak peek of her collection here.
